Description of research and teaching
My research examines Finland's forest and biodiversity politics. I'm interested in practices of valuation related to nature, use of scientific knowledge and political networks.
My previous research has examined the role of scientific knowledge in Finland's climate policy, and media debates on climate policy in a comparative perspective.
